BOX FOR ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A box for electrical connections for electrically connecting wall type units to a power source, comprising an electrical connection box having a pair of opposite spaced substantially parallel sides;
- electrical contact means mounted on the pair of sides in the box for releasably contacting electrical wall type units moved into the box, the electrical contact means comprising a plurality of contact units each having a first member of electrically insulating material adjacent the box, a spring-like electrical contact member adjacent the first member and a second member of electrically insulating material adjacent the contact member thereby sandwiching the electrical contact member between the first and second insulating members; and
electrical connecting means electrically connecting the electrical contact means to a source of power.
